Am having good success with 22. It is a delight to drop a file on the desktop knowing I can start it with a single click. I think the wallpaper chooser bug has already been mentioned (Only current wallpaper shows).
Tiling feature is a bit weird and maybe pointless the way it works just now._________________Spup Frugal HD and USB

The problem that i have with Saluki is that is now to good i have it installed on 3 laptops. luki 18 on a acer and 20 and 21 on 2 hp lap tops with ati radeon grafics. After i actualy managed to install the drivers i feel kinda happy. and for the first time i dont now if I dear to test 22 i love the way things are woring now, fast and stable. using synergy to switch mouse and keyboard. XBMC is playing full HD from a windows shares. ( that out mounts on startup ) Spotify is pumping music without any problems. Conky making it look cool. I also had this strange feeling that one day not to far in to the future i will install Saluki on the G73 that has an i7. Just because i starting to like this more than Win7. For me that is a compliment. My opinion is that win 7 is a good os on fast machines.

The second problem I have is with Linux in general and not just Saluki. Its the lack of a good / fast image viewer. The fastest yet is Geeqie but that will not load network shares. ( it will find the /mnt/network/share folder but no files or folders on the share ) On local files Geeqie is fast but i still have to wait for the image to load. The other images viewers i have tested is the inbuildt Ristretto, Gpicviwer and Viewnor from Racy. They will use 3 seconds to load a 16mp image file. Filesize aprox 5MB. I find it so strange that windows 7 image viewers has no problem doing this fast and very fast on image viewers like "www.fastpictureviewer.com/ or www.faststone.org" is this because we lack DirectX ?

anyways have fun testing the 22, i have it installed on a flash drive. Just need to dare try it

I've added GLiv image viewer to the repo. It should be hardware accelerated. Maybe it'll be faster for large files.

Sensors might work if you run sensors-dectect in the terminal. It really depends on the hardware.

No matter what I try the weather won't find a city, I'm wondering if anyone else in Oz is having a problem with it.

I ran sensors-dectect that should have been sensors-detect, finds cpu sensor but not much else,
it previously found most everything fan speed and the like but now after I saved and rebooted still nothing is displayed,
this is a upgraded 021 savefile so I will try from scratch and see if that makes a difference.

I've made a new usb install and still no luck displaying the sensors, If I run "sensors" in the terminal I get this:

hi jemimiah are you going to add these forum options to the first post in this forum or at lease the one for The latest iso. I am not teh only onw who thinks its a good idea. also where is the first page for the new 0.22 build i looked for 10 mins and could not find it.

save file:Another thing i noticed in saluki 021 and previous versions is this. when rebooting for first time. there was option to use the new better gui pup save app. or the original pupsave file creation. (in 022 i used the new app)

the new app has some great features mainly option to create .4fs ext 4 save file.

the old puppy save option only has ext2 and ext 3 save file ability.

if its possible i would recommend removing or disabling the old save file feature in place of the new app it has better features. this save confusing noobs to puppy who may stumble upon both options and become confused.

if you improve something why keep the old option if you dont have to.

chrome / chromium browser: is it possible for anybody to make a chrome or chromium pet for saluki. both are up to versioin 20 i believe. (atm the only option is an sfs version of google chrome version 12 a version this old poses risks of not supporting ad blocking extensions) might test a pet from lupu or slacko and see if they work in saluki._________________HiDeHo is an ideas man. loves to come up with ideas that others think are good and can use

HiDeHo,

It might be better to start a new thread with these links if you feel that they need to be resurrected for discussion.

I don't think it would be a good idea to post questions in this thread in regard to them this late in the game.

I'm personally not interested in any of the older versions I prefer to be at the coalface where all the action is

Is pupsaveconfig not coming up on shutdown for you? The old version is only available with the Legacy button or if you shutdown from the console. I was thinking of removing the Legacy button.

Chromium would need to be compiled on Saluki for it to work. Compiling it was way beyond my current skill level last time I tried it (I may have leveled up by now, perhaps I'll try it again at some point). AFAIK no one has ever successfully compiled it on any Puppy. Google does not make a "portable" Chrome version the way Firefox and Opera are compiled specially to work on a wide variety of distros.
